Default Workbooks.Open fails in scheduled job

Thanks Joel and OssieMac

I do seem to have got this working now with my chnge to the code and by
stopping the scheduled job being hidden.

Both of you have been helpful and it is appreciated. Joel some of your
debug tips will be useful in the future.

If it is failing as a scheduled job then the permissions aren't set the
same as when you are running while being logged in. Make sure you have
the the scheduled job running with the same crediatials as when you are
running from the command line.

What error are you getting from the scheduled job

I would put in the code for test a dbug statement.

On Error Resume Next
Workbooks.Open _
Filename:= "C:\Users\Alan\Documents\HSC\Fence Check\Fence
Check Rota.xlsm"
if Err.Number < 0 then
ErrMessage = "Error Number = " & err.number
shell("Echo " & ErrMessage & "C:\temp\Batch Job Error.txt")
exit sub
end if
